My first Title! :)

Washougal Nationals was on Thursday the 22nd. I went there with one goal, and one goal only. To win my first national title. In order to do that I knew what I had to do! Stay focused, ride smart, fast, and stay positive. The first women's moto I got a 3rd place start but ended up winning by 10 seconds! The second moto was a little different. My competition and I battled the whole race till about a half a lap to the checkered flag, I finally found her weak spot and took advantage of it! I shot to 1st place and was gone. I wasn't going to let anything get in my way of winning my 1st National Title! As I crossed the finish line I let out a scream and had a permanent smile across my face. As soon as I got off the track, my mechanic and I loaded up and headed to Portland International Raceways for the huge anniversary race! There also I went 1,1. I also got to see my 1st commerical that I stared in for Beaverton Motorcycles. So cool! That Thursday was a blast, and probably a day I will never forget! :)

Update!

I'm back! :)
Lately I have been racing every Thursday at Portland International Raceways, practicing during the week, and going to the gym. I've been training for Washougal Nationals, in hope for winning my first national before I turn pro. The Washougal National which is the 22nd of July and the anniversary race at PIR (Portland International Raceways) is the same day! Definitely going to be a busy day for me, but also a very exciting one. I have been very impressed with my new 2010 Kawasaki from Beaverton Motorcycles which has been nothing but a joy to ride! I can't wait for the 2011 Kawasakis to come out. I have taken every win so far down in Portland in the womens class since the seasons started, in april. My team mate Krista Buck has been doing well too, also rounding out the top three.
I'll keep everyone updated! :)
Thanks to everyone for all the support!
